Hi all,<BR>
<BR>
A slightly different subject. I have resurrected my old windows game that I am rather fond of. Some I play under Dosbox, some under Wine and others work in ScummVM. My favourite is a really old game named 'The seventh Guest'. Though I can get the game to run under Dosbox it usually crashes at some point but under ScummVM it works superbly. These games are all old dating back to Win95/Win98 and are exe files. What is it that makes them work in the different formats. Why does 7th Guest work both in ScummVM and Dosbox but Micemen only works under Dosbox and Sherlock which is of the same era works under Wine. I can't figure what differentiates them all. But one thing ... these good old windows games are all working on Ubuntu. Pretty neat.<BR>
<BR>
Only curious ...<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for any info.<BR>
